Setting a Default Scheduling Method
A default production scheduling method appears by default in the Scheduling Method field on work orders created manually and by automated supply planning.
To set default scheduling method:
-
Go to Setup > Manufacturing > Manufacturing Preferences.
-
In the Production Planning and Scheduling Allocation section, Default Scheduling Method field, choose either Forward or Backward.
This field defaults to the Forward scheduling.
-
Click Save.
This method you select automatically completes work orders. However, you can change the method on individual orders with a status of Planned or Released.
